Tammy Abraham makes 'difficult' Chelsea admission and hails Jose Mourinho impact at Roma

Tammy Abraham has admitted his departure from Chelsea was "difficult" but is now enjoying life under former Blues boss Jose Mourinho at new club Roma.

A graduate of the club's Cobham academy, Abraham enjoyed a prolific 2019/2020 campaign but only featured sporadically under Thomas Tuchel. The 24-year-old subsequently opted to seek pastures new in 2021 after playing a limited part in Chelsea's Champions League triumph that year.

Whilst acknowledging that his Stamford Bridge departure was not easy to accept, Abraham recognises his move abroad has had a significant positive impact after he netted 29 goals across all competitions and regained a place in the England squad.
